Hi, I know there have been a lot of issues with plex on the latest OS6.6. im having an issue installing the latest plex and not sure if its related, this is the error from debpkg log
Successfully installed dependencies for /tmp/plexmediaserver-ros6-binaries_1.2.6.2975-9394c87_armel.deb
dpkg: error processing archive /tmp/plexmediaserver-ros6-binaries_1.2.6.2975-9394c87_armel.deb (--install):

Did you copy that directly from the log, or is it possible that it actually says something like error processing archive /tmp/C:plexmediaserver-ros6-binaries_1.2.6.2975-9394c87_armel.deb (--install): ?
I've seen it include the drive letter and directory of the source .deb package in the log entries, and it always fails when it does (because a package by that name doesn't exist). The solution has been to clear the browser cache, close and re-start browser, and re-retry. Even if it doesn't show that, it may be worth a shot. Clearly, there is a problem sometimes passing the package name, and you may have run into something a little different than I have but still related.

Please hawke84, could you explain me step by step how did you manage to install and run plex on the RN104??
I have tried it many times, and it installs apparently fine and executes, but when I enter plex web with my user, I can't see the PMS on the NAS, I only see other PMS for Windows that I have installed... something is missing but I don't know what.
Regards.

Are you uploading the deb file on the app page, or installing it a different way?
